Hosed my system. Knoppix won't fix it.

Fudgetta bout it.
For reasons unclear, my old kernel seems to be blown away, too.
So, I have to reinstall lindows.
And I'll forget about getting the Zire to work with linux. 8 hours is enuf.
BTW, knoppix was far from ideal as a rescue disk. It has security
restrictions which limit its usefulness.
